How to Set Up and Use Sanity
The Sanity MCP server connects AI agents to the Sanity headless CMS, enabling natural language creation, querying, and updating of structured content across your Sanity projects. It is available as a hosted remote server at mcp.sanity.io with OAuth authentication, requiring no local installation, and works with Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible clients to transform CMS operations from complex GROQ queries into simple conversations.
Prerequisites
- A Sanity.io account and at least one Sanity project with content
- An MCP-compatible client such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, or VS Code that supports HTTP MCP transport
- Network access to mcp.sanity.io
Access the hosted Sanity MCP server
Sanity provides a fully managed remote MCP server at https://mcp.sanity.io. There is no local install needed—just configure your MCP client to point to this URL.
Add the Sanity MCP server to your client configuration
Open your MCP client configuration file and add the Sanity server using the HTTP transport type. This works for Claude Desktop, Cursor, and VS Code.
{
"mcpServers": {
"sanity": {
"url": "https://mcp.sanity.io",
"type": "http"
}
}
}Authenticate with OAuth
On first use, your MCP client will initiate the Sanity OAuth flow in your browser. Log in with your Sanity account and authorize access to your projects. No API tokens need to be managed manually.
Select your Sanity project and dataset
Once authenticated, you can ask your AI client to list your projects and datasets. Specify the project ID and dataset name in your prompts to target the correct content.
Start managing content with natural language
You can now query, create, and update Sanity documents through your AI client using natural language. The server handles GROQ query generation and mutations automatically.

}
}
}Prompts to try
Natural language prompts to use with the Sanity MCP server after authentication.
- "List all my Sanity projects and their datasets"
- "Fetch the 10 most recent published blog posts from my 'production' dataset"
- "Create a new 'article' document with title 'Getting Started with Sanity' and set the status to draft"
- "Update the 'seo.description' field on document with ID abc123"
- "Show me all documents of type 'product' where the price is greater than 100"Troubleshooting Sanity
Authentication fails or the OAuth flow does not redirect
Make sure you are logged into sanity.io in your browser and that your MCP client version supports HTTP transport and browser-based OAuth flows. Try opening https://mcp.sanity.io directly in your browser to confirm it is reachable.
Content queries return no results
Ensure you are specifying the correct Sanity project ID and dataset name in your prompt (e.g. 'production' or 'development'). If you have multiple projects, ask the AI to list all projects first to identify the right one.
MCP client does not support type: http transport
Update your MCP client to the latest version. Claude Desktop, Cursor, and VS Code with recent updates all support HTTP transport for remote MCP servers. Check the client's documentation for minimum version requirements.
